  • A self-starter mentality with a friendly, can-do attitude.
  • Customer focus, pride in appearance (we have guidelines) and professionalism
  • A digital tachograph card, either already owning or be prepared to get one

YOUR BENEFITS

What’s in it for you? The professional challenges, a friendly team, as well as a working environment that puts your safety first. But what else makes this role such a great opportunity?

  • A starting salary from £12,77 per hour (£26,561.60), rising to £14,40 per hour (£29,952.00) after 6 months, rising to £14,70 pe hour (£30,576.00) after 12 months for drivers without C1 and to £15,71 per hour (£32,676.00) with C1

  • Discounts at major retailers (like Apple), cinemas and attractions (such as Alton Towers and The London Eye), plus many more benefits
  • Full training to help you perform at your best
  • Opportunities to progress – thanks to our ‘promotion from within policy’

YOUR TEAM

Delivering all over the world, 24/7 means we’re a busy business. We deliver almost anything virtually anywhere in the world. Every package that comes into our care is on a journey. At whichever end of that journey it comes into your hands, you’ll make sure it gets to where it needs to be, when it needs to be there. Because when you put on a UPS uniform and drive one of our instantly recognisable brown vehicles, you’re responsible for delivering our brand too. That means going the extra mile all day, every day.
